Mirrors stood at the four corners of the room, each covered with a white cloth, so only the bottom part could be seen.
"Why are there mirrors in the repair room? And on all four sides?" Regardless of whether this repair room is used to repair living people or to repair furniture, it seems that mirrors are not needed.
"After they've fixed something, do they put it in front of a mirror to admire it?"
Without waiting for Bai Ling and Wang Xiaoming to speak, Chen Ge reached out and lifted the white cloth on the mirror.
“Don’t touch it!”
Bai Ling's reminder was a little late, the white cloth fell to the ground, and the three people in the room saw the covered mirror.
"Is this paint?" Chen Ge stood in front of the mirror and touched the mirror surface. There was a layer of something similar to red paint on the smooth mirror surface.
The mirror surface is completely covered and this mirror cannot reflect anyone at all.
Chen Ge scratched the mirror with his fingernails. The red paint-like substance seemed to have grown on the mirror and had merged with it. He couldn't get it off no matter what he did.
"Mirror……"
Chen Ge suddenly remembered something. This was the first time he saw a mirror in the world behind the door after waking up from the classroom.
Mirrors, which are very common in real life, seem to have become some kind of taboo item in this school.
"There is no mirror in dormitory 413, there is no mirror in Xiaolin's backpack, there is no mirror in the dormitory manager's room, and there is no mirror in the staff dormitory where Bai Ling and Teacher Bai live!"
Quickly lifting the white cloth on the four mirrors, Chen Ge discovered that the four mirrors had different shapes and must have been moved from different places.
"The key to the repair room is in the hands of the teacher and the repairman. Usually, few people come in. The school put four mirrors here, obviously because they don't want too many people to see them."
The surfaces of all four mirrors were painted with that red paint, so even if you stood in front of the mirror, you couldn't see yourself in the mirror.
"None of the mirrors can reflect people. Are they afraid of seeing themselves in the mirror?" Chen Ge couldn't figure out the reason, but he was cautious. Next time if he saw a mirror, he must pay more attention. Maybe there is hope of escape hidden in it.
"Xiao Lin, have you found all the things? It's time to go." Wang Xiaoming kept urging Chen Ge, and as time went by, he became more and more impatient.
"Wait a moment." Chen Ge carefully observed the four mirrors in the corner of the repair room. The first mirror had no frame and the edge was wrapped with transparent tape. It looked like it was removed from the wardrobe.
The second mirror was not very big. Someone must have sawed off the upper part of the dressing table. It didn’t look like the kind of furniture that would be found in a school.
The third mirror has the words "Laboratory Building" written on it, so it must have come from there.
The fourth mirror has a wooden frame with the number 413 written on it.
Below the number, at the edge where the mirror frame meets the wall, there is a person’s name, Lin Sisi.
"Why is there Xiaolin's name on this mirror? Could it be that this mirror was taken out of Xiaolin's dormitory?"
Chen Ge felt that the matter was not that simple. There was no such person as Xiao Lin in the student file, so why were the three words "Lin Sisi" written on the mirror?
Squatting in front of the last mirror, Chen Ge looked at the covered mirror surface. He didn't know whether his shadow was accidentally reflected on it, or because of the light and viewing angle, but Chen Ge vaguely felt that there was a person in the mirror.
"Lin Sisi's name is written on the mirror. If there is really someone imprisoned inside, could that person be the previous Lin Sisi?"
He reached out and touched the mirror. The cold and chilly feeling was like touching a "blood door" that was slowly opening.
The mirror in front of him seemed to have turned into a giant python with its bloody mouth opened wide. Chen Ge endured the discomfort and grabbed the edge of the mirror. When his fingers touched the back of the mirror, he found that the back of the mirror was uneven, as if something was engraved on it.
“It feels like I’m being swallowed.”
Chen Ge slowly turned the mirror and took a deep breath when he saw the back of the mirror.
The three words "Lin Sisi" were engraved on the back of the mirror with bright red dye!
They were so densely packed that they filled the entire back of the mirror. More importantly, these names were obviously written by different people, and the handwriting was completely different.
"Wang Xiaoming, move the other mirrors away and see if there is a name written behind each mirror." Chen Ge held the fourth mirror with both hands and motioned Wang Xiaoming to move the other mirrors, but after he talked for a long time, Wang Xiaoming just stood there motionless.
Chen Ge looked back and found that Wang Xiaoming and Bai Ling were both staring at the mirror in the repair room. They were leaning forward, touching the ground with their toes. Blue veins appeared on their pale faces, and their eyes were filled with endless malice and resentment.
"What happened to you two?"
The mirror was smeared with blood-red dye and could not reflect any human figures, but Wang Xiaoming and Bai Ling seemed to be able to see things in the mirror.
"The mirrors they saw were different from the ones I saw? Or did they sense the presence of something? Bai Ling's father once warned her not to get close to the repair room. Could it be because of these mirrors?"
Bai Ling and Wang Xiaoming were still Chen Ge's teammates for the time being. He was afraid that the two would suddenly go crazy, so he quickly picked up the white cloth on the ground and covered the mirror.
Unable to see the mirror, Wang Xiaoming and Bai Ling slowly calmed down, the blue veins on their faces faded, and the viciousness in their eyes disappeared.
They seemed unaware of the abnormality that had just occurred to them, as if everything was Chen Ge's own hallucination.
"The mirror seems to reflect their true appearance."
There were very few mirrors in the school, and the surfaces of the only four mirrors were all painted with red paint. Chen Ge was a little curious about how Wang Xiaoming and the others would react if they saw the mirrors that had not been painted.
"We've got what we want, it's time to leave." Chen Ge walked out of the repair room reluctantly. If the mirrors weren't too big, he would even want to take the four mirrors away with him.
What Chen Ge had to do next was to find a way to avoid the dormitory manager and return to Dormitory 413, pull out the nails on the wall, and try to convince those shadows.
"Xiao Lin." Wang Xiaoming had somehow found his way behind Chen Ge. He gently grabbed Chen Ge's arm and said, "As we agreed before, don't forget to accompany me to the cafeteria to buy food later."
"Is the cafeteria still open so late?" Chen Ge smiled, his eyes moving between Bai Ling and Wang Xiaoming.
"Of course, you'll know if you come with me. There's a window secretly selling some delicious food." With saliva oozing from the corners of his mouth, Wang Xiaoming looked a little scary.
"You can't leave! Didn't you promise to stay with me? I only brought my family here! You have to go back with me!" Bai Ling hugged Chen Ge's left arm with both hands, and she and Wang Xiaoming refused to give in to each other.
"Yeah, what should I do?" Chen Ge pretended to be embarrassed and looked at the two people who were holding his arms: "Why don't you two think of a way and decide where I should go."
